We examine the use of natural boundary conditions and conditions of the Sommerfeld type for finite element simulations of convective transport in viscous incompressible flows. We show that natural boundary conditions are superior in the sense that they always provide a correct boundary condition, as

The mathematical formulation of the dynamics of free liquid surfaces including the effects of surface tension is governed by a non-linear system of elliptic differential equations. The major difยฎculty of getting unique closed solutions only in trivial cases is overcome by numerical methods. This pap
## Abstract We consider a coupled finite element (fe)โboundary element (be) approach for threeโdimensional magnetic field problems. The formulation is based on a vector potential in a bounded domain (fe) and a scalar potential in an unbounded domain (be). We describe a coupled variational problem y
In order to simulate flows in the shallow water limit, the full incompressible Navier-Stokes equations with free boundaries are solved using a single layer of finite elements. This implies a polynomial approximation of the velocity profile in the vertical direction, which in turn distorts the wave s
